Maybe, but I’d guess not. Assigning a number to something is inherently a by announcement action. If I say “this is boat number 1”, then it’s boat #1 by my definition. All Rule 2141 does is to say the Rulekeepor’s definitions are the ones officially recognized by Agora. -Aris On Sat, Jun 1, 2019

Rulekeepor reporting in. As AIS523 says, there is no perscribed method of ID assignment. I assign each rule the ID number one greater than the one enacted before it. Theoretically, I *could* influence the way rules are interpreted in a very minor way, but I don't see any purpose. The general
